HRS §490:8-502
When a buyer of financial assets is protected from ownership disputes
This section protects someone who buys a financial asset and gets a security entitlement for value without knowing about another person's claim to it. Such a buyer cannot be sued for ownership disputes, no matter the legal theory. It only applies if the buyer acted in good faith and paid value.
